"Quintin Middleton’s interest in the art of hand-forged knives started at a young age, when he was captivated by sword-brandishing heroes like Conan the Barbarian and He-Man. As a teen, Middleton spent years learning to make knives and swords under a master bladesmith, and in 2010, he opened his own shop in South Carolina with a focus on crafting Damascus steel chef’s knives. Ten years later, Middleton Made Knives are highly regarded by chefs." - Terri Ciccone
